Bearing Support - Bladder 36

[Guest guest]

Bladder 36, Bearing Support, is a good point to work to increase

resistence to colds and flu. Also for other conditions which are the

result of Wind Cold. The Chinese believe that Wind and Cold enter the

pores at this point.

 

For those of you who have a copy of Acupressure's Potent Points, this

info is on page 59.

 

I know when I used to have the severe migraines, the 3 areas that did

wonders for me were Small Intestine 3 on the hands, the Sea of

Vitality (Bladder 23 and Bladder 47) on the back, and putting a

heating pad over my upper back. I have no idea which point or points

that heating pad over the upper back helped, but it definitely

helped. I suspect that adding the heat to Bladder 36, Bearing

Support, was at least one thing that the heating pad over the upper

back was doing.

 

I also want to mention again that not all migraines have the same

Root. This is what worked in a person who was extremely Yang

Deficient, had Internal Cold (both Deficiency and Excess), weak

Protective Qi, and is especially vulnerable to Wind Cold.
